Top UK hedge fund also appears to have rolled out a LinkedIn ban

EFC – There’s no shortage of career advice on how to present yourself on LinkedIn to potential employers. Endorsements, top skills and a general polished ‘personal brand’ are all key to attracting the attention of recruiters. But what if your current employer forbids you from selling yourself.

As we’ve mentioned previously, J.P. Morgan has banned its technology team from displaying all but the most sparse information about their credentials on social media. However, hedge fund Winton Capital appears to have gone one step further – stopping their employees naming their employer on LinkedIn.
